It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Lol, Tolkien hated the nazis primarily because they were fucking nazis, he was miffed about their use of germanic and Norse mythological imagery cause they were intentionally warping a history he knew a fuckload about. But to say he was mad cause the nazis made white supremacy look bad is absurd and doesn't really understand how old timey this dude is, if anything Tolkien thought that damage was done following the Norman Conquest. My man was waaaaaay too mideval and ancient history brained to even consider a unified white European culture to be a thing.
